John McIntyre: Anthony Cunningham running out of time with Tribesmen

Former Galway manager John McIntyre has predicted that his successor Anthony Cunningham is unlikely to remain in charge of the Tribesmen for much longer.

Cunningham, now in his fourth season, took over when McIntyre’s three-year term finished without ending the Galway All-Ireland famine, and the timid manner in which they went down to Waterford in the league quarter-finals last weekend has led to a lot of soul-searching in the county this week.

McIntyre, writing in the Connacht Tribune, where he is sports editor, said that Galway have gone downhill since drawing the 2012 All-Ireland final against Kilkenny and he doesn’t see Cunningham surviving in the position much longer.
